    I talk to the young lads who look after the gardens here and I must sound like the ancient mariner.
    (* That's from a book of poems by Samuel Coleridge.)
    (** A book is made from pulped paper where written pages are bound together.)


    I have to be careful not to say I've 'taped' the match or 'put the phone down' or they start Googling to work out wtf I'm saying ...

    ... and I wouldn't say I'm going down to the 'off licence' <laugh>

    ( *Off licence is where you'd go if you'd only got ten shillings and it would've been your round at the club.)

    Looking dangerous every time they attack but keeping it really tight ...

    ... Sheff Utd are playing exactly the same as last season.

    4-1 now <laugh>

    Blades away to beat the traffic <whistle>

    Many years ago I won a game of Trivial Pursuit with that.
    The question was along the lines of "which poem by Samuel Coleridge was (something, something), about an albatross.. "

    I answered "Rime of The Ancient Mariner", and to the amazement of everyone it was right!!
    "How the fcuk did you know that" they asked.

    I only knew it as its a song by Iron Maiden....

    I meant the tactic, not the person ...

    ... it was always Wilder's favourite.

    Rangers winning 2-1 now

    Edit - goal disallowed, finished 1-1, could be 4 behind Celtic after 2 games
